Why'd ya never, why'd ya never smile
Did they beat 'cha when you was a child
Did you ever, ever have a friend
Fair weather never came again
Come on baby come on give me a smile
You're so depressing, you`re such a serious child
Come on baby... come on baby
Come on baby... come on baby
Come on give me a smile
You were looking, you were looking through
Back pages of Sniffin' Glue
You were hoping, you were hoping to
See something in there about you
People say you just can`t be too careful
A bird in the hand I`m sure you know
Don`t go lying on the bible
If you do then God will know
People can be very superstitious
Looking for the black cat on the road
Don`t go walking under ladders
Look left and right before you go
I like walking under ladders
I always break my mirror shades
My eggs are always in one basket
Nothing ventured nothing gained
People say you just can`t be too careful
Nailing horseshoes on your door
Don`t forget to cross your fingers
Like you never did before
Well I was strolling down the Rue Morgue
Walking with my French dog Andre
When I saw a pretty Fille
She was walking down the street, coming my way
Well I took that little girl by the hand
I said hey babe I`ll be your man
And she said 'je ne comprend pas'
Va te faire enculer
That`s what she told me, a dictionary please
Va te faire enculer
I think she likes me, oui
I said tell me where you stay
She said 'qu'est-ce vous direz'
I said let's go there
I said tell me what`s your nom
She said allez-vous-en
I said hi, Ali
I said I never got to learn any French
I took Technical Drawing instead
She turned to me and she said...
I'm not ready... I'm not ready
Too young to go steady
I`m not ready... I'm not ready
Too young to go steady
One girl, one night
Just once, maybe twice
No tears, no ties
Here I come... Ow!
All I wanna do is screw with you
What do you wanna do?
It's up to you
I've gone and sold everything I own
The GPO wanna cut off my phone
My landlady she says I gotta go
She says I gotta leave
I'm out a work and I`m outta the dole
I've got no food and my room is cold
Wish I knew what the future holds
Will it always be...
No money...
I got no money
No money...
Money's all gone
Politicians shaking hands with the queen
Power kings with a power dream
Crawling forward on their hands and knees
For an OBE
Money men down on money street
Business men into business deals
Drive their Sunday colour limousines
Over you and me
You lied to me in the kitchen
You lied to me in the hall
You lied to me when I met you
Oh, how you lied
How you lied
You lied to me in the morning
You lied to me at night
You lied to me when I met you
Oh, how you lied
How you lied
Don't lie, don't lie, don't lie, don't lie to me
Don't lie, don't lie, don't lie, don't lie to me
Don't lie, don't lie, don't lie
Or I'll make you cry
You know you never meant that much to me
Wee Willy Watermelon, Lucy Leek
Polly Pomegranate, Percy Pea
They're in my garden and they're all good friends to me
Hello, good morning Betty Beetroot
Tell me now can it be true?
You're going out with Bertie Brussel sprout tonight?
We are the Garden Gang, hello, hello
We are the Garden Gang, so on with the show
We are the Garden Gang, hello, hello
We are the Garden Gang, so on with the show
I dig the Garden Gang

I dig the Garden Gang
And they dig me
We are friends
We are neighbours
Just passing by
We are lovers
We are strangers
Hello, goodbye
When I`m bad...
And I`m nasty...
You never cry
When you`re sad...
And you need me...
I never try
You don`t even listen...
And we both know why
What we had is missing...
Something good has died
Gabrielle
Gabrielle
Gabrielle... you never ball me, never ball me out
Gabrielle... you never tell me that you love me now
Gabrielle... you never call me on the telephone
Gabrielle... you never ask me when I'm coming home
Flies in the kitchen
Flies in the hall
Flies in the bathroom
See how they fly, how they fly
Flies on the ceiling
Flies on the wall
Flies on the windows
See how they fly, how they fly
But you will never find no flies on me
No you will never find no flies on me
Time and time again
Buzzing round my brain
Can't you see that that's what's bugging me
Flies round the dustbin
Flies round the door
Flies round the lightbulb
See how they fly, how they fly
For those who dare to criticise
With contradiction in your eyes
You're only trying to decide
That you're not wrong and I'm not right
For all the worlds you never see
And all the colours you have been
For all your happiness it seems
Is just a shadow of your dreams
We got flash
We got flash
We got flash
Oh... oh oh oh... it`s my first time
Oh... oh oh oh... please be kind
Oh... oh oh oh... don`t hurt me
Oh... oh oh oh...
I met her last Friday
At the local dance
She was across the room
I caught her glance
We started dancing
And before you know
I took her to my place
Where we were alone and she said...
I didn`t know what to say
Didn`t want to hurt in anyway
I looked in those big brown eyes
Filled with tears she tried to hide... she said...
We felt so happy
We felt so fine
I don't think I'll ever forget the time... she said...
Monday, Friday working 9 to 5
He's been working so hard
Says goodbye to his loving wife
The house he works to afford
Moonlight flashing on the kitchen knife
To wander, God only knows
You know he always keeps it outta sight
In his second hand clothes
Dressed to kill
He's dressed to kill
Dressed to kill
You know that he will
A lonely street by a lonely park
A lady dressed to thrill
See the man in a family car
You know he's dressed to kill
How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggley tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie's for sale

And leave my poor doggie alone

Any city, any street

The heat is on gotta take care
Law and order everywhere
Cop cars in the city
In the city in the city
Isn't it a pity, in the city, in the city
Cop cars... cop cars
Long arm getcha so I hear
The hand is open they don't say
Which fool said crime don't pay
Keep running... gotta keep running
Come they told me, pa rub a dum dum

Hey, poor little rich girl
Mummy loves you, she says you`re beautiful
You`ve got a lot of nerve
When you tell me to forget my girl
Your just fifteen years old
Don`t you think that I know better
Hey, your money isn`t everything
Daddy buys you boys now you want a wedding ring
You`ve got a lot to learn
If you think that I`ll forget her
Your just a little girl
Can`t you see that I know better
No luxury`s are gonna change the way I feel for you
You gotta be kidding, you gotta be kidding
You can`t buy me
You got no shares in me
Nobody wants to call you on the telephone
You talk to people as if you wanna be alone
Sometimes I wonder if you're dead or alive
You're always acting like you've something to hide
You're so cool
You never let it show (cool)
You know you're always so (cool)
Nobody ever knows you
Your friends will soon get tired of trying to get through
And pretty soon you know they will forget you
Sometimes I wonder what you're keeping inside
When you got nothing you got nothing to hide
One morning you'll wake up:oh oh oh oh
You'll find the world is too cold
Nobody wants to call you on the telephone
You talk to people as if you wanna be alone
Let me know if and when you decide
You got nothing really nothing to hide

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Silver bells, silver bells
Soon it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
Soon it will be Christmas day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling of Christmas
People drinking
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas again in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day...
Through the concrete piazzas they roam
Safe in numbers they're never alone
The mutant offspring of council house schemes
The dreaded nightmare of town planners dreams
Neighbourhood brats, neighbourhood brats
Folks step aside when they pass
You blame the teachers, the troubles at home
You blame the parents, where did we go wrong
You blame the violence in films that they see
You blame the drugs, the sex on TV
Neighbourhood brats, neighbourhood brats
Church goers hide when they pass
And then he kicked me...
Blame the plastic, the concrete and glass
The carefully measured out pieces of grass
The comprehensive's concentration camp wall
The desolated community hall
The one-car garage and semi-detached
Neat little garden and yard at the back
The little boxes with nowhere to hide
Two up, two down, toilet inside
Well Gambling Jim took the riverboat down to Rio
Left the trail at a town called Home Sweet Home
Lost his place in the Guinness Book Of Records
As a Rolling Stone...
I`m the only cowboy... Lonely on the range
The only lonely cowboy on the range
V2: Handsome Bill had an eye out for the ladies
Said he's gonna let me know if looks can kill
But I heard tell that he ran right out of favours
And he's running still...
Chameleon Kid as the name suggests was a killer
Who made his name by the element of disguise
When he lost his way by relying on the trigger
It was no surprise...
Oh Preacher Sam was a bible fan so religious
Prayed all day but he never got no reply
Till the message came that he didn't intend to save us
It was suicide....
Well they gunned him down at the Freedom Church Revival
Died they say with the fever light in his eyes
When the bullet lodged in the pages of his bible
From the other side...
I've got no money, you're outta your tree
You wanted a fall guy, well that ain't me
I wouldn't mind saying, I think you should know
You give me a hard time, but that ain't so
Little runaround, little runaround, little runaround
Run to me
Little runaround, little runaround, little runaround
Run to me
I should have known better, what happened to me
Well I can put down to, history
But little lady, I want you to know
That when you get lonely, nowhere to go
Little runaround (little runaround can't you see)
Little runaround (little runaround can't you see)
Little runaround (little runaround you can)
Run to me
Little runaround (little runaround can't you see)
Little runaround (little runaround can't you see)
Little runaround (little runaround you can)
Run to me
When you get up in the morning
Just to watch your favourite show and it`s over
When you wanna make some tea
And you haven`t got a light for the cooker
When you finally find a match
But you haven't got a coin for the meter....
It`s a bad................... day
It`s a bad................... day
When you go to see your girl
In the middle of the night 'cos you love her
And you know it's not polite
But you don't knock on the door 'cos you know her
And she's with another guy
And they`re bouncing up and down on the sofa....
When you have to move your bed
'Cos the damp patch on the wall's getting nearer
And you move it to the wall
But you slip and put your head through the mirror
So you plaster up your face
And decide to stay in bed 'til it's over
When you find out that the horse
On the ticket that you lost is a winner
It`s your last slice of bread
And you burn it to a crisp in the toaster
And the horoscope you read
Says you should have stayed in bed till tomorrow...
Sunday evening, I`m outta my brain
Monday morning, you tell me your name
Wednesday, Thursday, I`m going insane
Friday evening, I call you again
Weekend, weekend, weekend
Weekend - I gotta little money to spend
Weekend - I wanna make you my weekend
Weekend - I wanna make you more than my friend
Weekend
Weekend - I gotta little money to spend
Weekend - I'm gonna make you my weekend
Weekend - I wanna make you more than my friend
Monday morning, it`s going too slow
I can`t talk to nobody I know
Wednesday, Thursday, mind going A.W.O.L.
Friday evening, gonna give you a call
So you're gonna save us, oh yeah
By kissing babies
You're on the TV, you bore us to death
Your by-elections are a pain in the neck
You carry cases and you sit on a bench
Just like schoolboys
Our leaders, we must be crazy
Our leaders, we're all crazy
Long holidays, oh yeah
The old schoolboys, the way you squabble everytime that you meet
The clever ones have all fallen asleep
We only see you when you're saving your seat
The old schoolboys
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer
We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Hey boy what are you gonna do
Now that everybody`s looking at you?
Hurry now you ain`t got the time
Up front in the firing line
You gotta make your mind up right now
Any time any place any how
You gotta stand up to what`s in front now
Watcha gonna do
Hey boy what are you gonna do
There ain`t no future so you better make your mind up now
There ain`t no future if you keep messing around
Well I've been working all summer and I ain't got nothing to show
I'm feeling kinda dirty, I need a shot of rock and roll
Monday, get to Friday, I feel like letting go
Well my temperature's rising and it feels like I'm ready to blow
Julie says she's busy and she acts like 50 below
Always says she love me, but she keep on telling me no
Yeah, let me walk, let me walk, let me walk, let me walk
Let me walk, let me walk, let me walk, let me walk
Let me walk, let me walk, let me walk, let me walk
Let me walk, let me walk, let me walk my dog
I've been waiting far too long
For another girl to come along
I`ve been wasting all my time
Looking for a girl that I`d call mine
All my days and nights I spend... held in ecstasy
Waiting for that special friend to give some sympathy
Just some love and sympathy
I've been going everywhere
Looking for a love that I can share
Stop the world I'm getting old
I'll maybe miss my chance and lose that girl
All my days and nights I spend held in ecstasy
Waiting for that special friend to give some sympathy
Just some love and sympathy
We'll I'm waiting for the lady
Waiting for the lady
Waiting for the lady
Yes I'm waiting for the lady
Waiting for the lady
Waiting for the lady
U... S.... I... She should have told me
U... S... I... Too young for me
U... S... I...
Stood there in her old school frock
Concealing everything she's got
Didn`t look like that when it happened
Looked at least seventeen
But that's not what the jury sees
How was I supposed to know - it was...
One! she should have told me
Two! they wanna hold me
Three! they won't parole me
Four! but it was only...
People walking in the streets are turning grey
As they hurry by they fade away
Boredom everywhere in town
Boredom everywhere around
How no one older seems to care...
I'm gonna pack my bags today
Before my mind starts turning grey
Starts turning grey
The whole wide fucking world is turning grey
Every house along our street is turning grey
Flower gardens turn to stone and fade away
When the TV closes down
Lights out all around
How come no one older seems to care
You think I'm worried
Heartbroke and sorry
It couldn't happen to me
How 'bout a smile honey
How 'bout a kiss
How 'bout a tumble with me
Cos all the girls in the neighbourhood
All wanna tumble with me
Wake up little Susie
Stop pickin' your nose
Wake up little Susie
Cut out your high-heeled pose
Cos all the girls in the neighbourhood
All wanna tumble with me
Come on now tumble with me
Tumble with me girl
I'm gonna get you girl, just wait and see
I'll win eventually
How 'bout a smile honey
How 'bout a kiss
How 'bout a tumble with me
Well I think I'd better warn you
'Bout the kids on the corner tonight
Cos the human jungle's gonna see some rumble tonight
We'll be ripping up the seats
Runnin' wild in the streets tonight
Better start runnin' when you hear us coming tonight
Better lock away your daughters
'Cos there's gonna be a slaughter tonight
Don't care if it`s wrong
Don't care if it's right
I'll do what I want tonight... so look out
Pick me up as you stagger out the door
Pick me up as I picked you up before
So pack-in all your laughing
I'm on my way to hell
But if it's good enough for Jerry-Lee
It's certainly good enough for me
Pick me up as you stagger out the door
Pick me up as I picked you up before
Yeah, I know to old Dino and Jerry-Lee
I'm nothing but a punk
Still drinking like a baby boy, compared to what they've drunk
But one day, they'll be proud of me, if I could only get up of this floor
So pick me up, and lean me against the bar and make me drink some more
Pick me up as you stagger out the door
Pick me up as I picked you up before
Yeah, I know I've had no hard times
And I've always been a mother's boy
And the only heartache I ever knew, was whenever I broke my toy
So pack-in all your laughing
I'm on my way to hell
But if it's good enough for Jerry-Lee
It's certainly good enough for me
She said it was just for a day
But now I know she's gone to stay
She's gone and found another man
What can I do, I feel so down
She went and left without a sign
My friends say "come on, you'll feel fine"
But I know better 'cause it's true
She's gone to make a life with you
You're the other man
You used to be my friend
You're the other man
You're the other man
You're the other man
You brought my life to an end
So you're the other man
I often wondered who it could be
You've gone and torn apart my life
Taken the girl who belonged to me
Now I don't ever want to see you again
You're just a bum, you're not my friend
You made my girl lie to me
And I was a fool, I'd believe her
You go your way
You go your way, I'll go mine
Maybe someday
Another place another time
When you find a substitute
Someone who can step in my shoes
And I`m hoping you do... I've got nothing to lose
Cos you can`t hurt a memory
Can't hurt a memory
Can't hurt a memory
You can't hurt me
Will you miss me
Miss the way I crawled for you
If you need me
Don`t call me I`ll call you
I'm strong enough to know what to do
But not enough to make it with you
When I'm just a name, in a photograph frame
Another lonely night
And I'm wondering what I'll do
How I'm gonna face
The things you put me through
Wondering if you'll call
Tell me I'm your man
It's getting to be hard
Never knowing where I am
But when you start to play the games you play
You begin to cry out, "Please don't leave me, don't ya tease me" (stay)
You can give it, but you sure can't take it
You can't take it, you can't take it
You can give it, but you sure can't take it
You can't take it, you can't take it
Friends all shake their heads
Tell me I'm a fool
To put up with your moods
When you're hot and when you're cool
Wondering if you'll call
Tell me I'm your man
It's getting to be hard
Never knowing where I am
You've got a pocket full of easy money
And it talks to you
And a handful of friends who only
Wanna crawl for you
You`ve got a taste for the easy action
And it grows on you
You thought you could lick it now you can`t kick it...
And it shows on you
They say that crime doesn`t pay but you... know it do
Because you found a way to make it... work for you
Daddy doesn`t understand...
He`s never been a part of your plans
You`ve been working on the wrong arm of the law
You`ve been working on the wrong arm of the law
Well your daddy`s out selling pictures
And pulling strings for you
And your mama`s in the bedroom crying
And packing things for you
You got a pocket full of easy money
And it talks for you
But all your money ain`t gonna help you...
When they fall on you
I don't know much about history
I don't know much about biology
I don't know much about science book
I don't know much about French I took
All I do know is that I love you
And I wonder if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
What a wonderful world this would be
I don't know much about geography
I don't know much about trigonometry
I don't know much about algebra
I don't know what a slide rule is for
But I do know one and one is two
And I wonder if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
What a wonderful world this would be
I don't claim to be an "A" student
That's what I'm trying to be
Cos by being an "A" student baby
I could win your love for me
Oh no not another
Lying on his marble throne
Surrounded by his so called friends
Rag doll died alone
Terminal love
Terminal love
Oh terminal love
Terminal love
Just another mixed up junkie
Just another lonely heart
Dead and soon to be forgotten
Killed by greedy showbiz tarts
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
(Hank, James, Buddy, Eddie)
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
(Jim, Gene, Brian),
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
(Jimi, Marc, Elvis)
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
(Keith, Sid)
Oh no not another
Lying on his marble throne
Surrounded by his so called friends
Rag doll died alone
Terminal love
Terminal love
Oh terminal love
Terminal love
Just another mixed up junkie
Just another lonely heart
Dead and soon to be forgotten

Tenement kids gonna rule the world
And all you hungry tenement girls won't convince me
Life is sweet
Only time I'm happy is when I'm on the streets
'Cos that's where...
Tenement kids... tenement kids don`t lose
And there's tenement kids upstairs downstairs too
Life's easy when you've got no drive
If life's hard, the strong survive
And maybe soon just wait and see
Maybe soon there`s gonna be fighting in the streets
And that's where...
Yeah yeah yeah... Met her at the evening classes
Yeah yeah yeah... Madame Lollete
Yeah yeah yeah... She started making French advances
Yeah yeah yeah
I'm a teacher's pet
I'm a teacher's pet
Me and Madame Lollete
She taught me more than French
Je t'aime Je t'adore
T.C.P. it cured my acne
T.C.P. it left me pimple free...hey!
Johnny, Joey, Tommy, Dee Dee
T.C.P. will leave you pimple free...hey!
T.C.P. it cured my acne
T.C.P. it left me pimple free...hey!
Hey what'cha talking about
I hope you know
Something you've thought about
It doesn't show
You've got so much to say
I wonder why
Is what you're saying just
Another line?
I hear you talking
It seems to me
You ain't said nothing yet
Talk is cheap
Talking... Talking... Talking...
Talk talk talk
Some people die because
They really care
Some folks get crucified
Their cross to bear
What you doing 'cos you're getting it all wrong
Where you going 'cos you know you ain't that strong
What you doing when the wait becomes too long
What you doing, what you doing when your time runs out
Do you know what you wanna become now
Do you know if they really object now
Would you know if I asked you to say how
What you doing what you doing when your time runs out
Taking all the world... ah ah
Trying to be heard... ah ah
Taking on the world... ah ah
But a who wants to know when you're two nil down
Taking on the world... ah ah
Taking on the world... ah ah
Well I'd just like to say
That I can't find a way
To say what I wanna say
But even if I did I don't know what I'd be saying
When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean holds the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with me
When you dance you have a way with me
Sway with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
But my eyes will see no one but you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before it begin
Sway as only you know how
Sway me close sway me now
See the girl with cymbals on her fingers
Entering through the door
Ruby glistening from her navel
Shimmering round the floor
Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-linging
Going through my head
Sweat is falling just-a like-a tear drop
Running from her hair
Now she dancing, going through the movements
Swaying to and fro
Body moving, bringing back a memory
Thoughts of long ago
Blood is rushing, temperature is rising
Sweating from my brow
Like a snake, her body fascinates me
I can't look away now
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Now she's moving all around the tables
Luring all in sight
But I know that she cannot see me
Hidden by the light
Closer, closer she is getting nearer
Soon she'll be in reach
As I enter into a spotlight
She stands lost for speech
Now I hold her, people are staring
Don't know what to think
And we struggle, knocking over tables
Spilling all the drinks
Can't they understand that I want her
Happens every week
Heavy hand upon my collar
Throws me in the street
In de jungle, where de white man never go
In de jungle, we take off all de clothes
In de jungle, where de missionary sleep
We do jig-jig all day long, oyoyo
Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute heilige Paar.
Holder Knab im lockigten Haar,
Schlafe in himmlischer Ruh!
Schlafe in himmlischer Ruh!
Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht!
Hirten erst kundgemacht
Durch der Engel Alleluja,
Tönt es laut bei Ferne und Nah:
Jesus der Retter ist da!
Jesus der Retter ist da!
Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute heilige Paar.
Holder Knab im lockigten Haar,
Schlafe in himmlischer Ruh!
Schlafe in himmlischer Ruh!
You wanna know what it's like
Condemned to live with you
It's some kind of suicide
Some phase that I'm through
I ain't sadistic, masochistic
You and me are through
I`m sick to death of everything you do
And if I'm gonna have a puke you bet yer life I'll puke on you
I'm gonna be, gonna be sick on you
I'm gonna be, gonna be sick on you
I'm gonna be, gonna be sick on you
All down your face, your dress, your legs and your shoes...
Sick on you
Give it to me babe
Give it to me babe
Give it to me babe
It's been six weeks and that`s six weeks too long
You thought we were Romeo and Juliet
You couldn't have been more wrong
So pack your rags in to your bags
Get back where you belong
I`m sure they miss you, it`s really quite a shame
I hear Skid Row's just never been the same
The girl that you just met is an angel
And she'll make heaven, here on earth just for you
But it's because you are a friend of mine
I'll have to lay it on the line
And tell you it ain't true
Now you may find it hard to swallow
That she ain't all you thought her to be
But it's because you are a friend of mine
I'll have to lay it on the line
Somehow I've got to make you see
Your angel comes down from heaven
Every night and comes to town
She hangs around the bar rooms
And comforts any man around
Anyone who's got the money
To fill her glass once more
Oooh, oooh, she's no angel
Oooh, oooh, she's no angel
Oooh, oooh, she's no angel
When I was looking through the hole in my pocket I found the ticket for the two-forty-five
Well I was broke and I decided to hawk it but my watch said it was quarter to five
Well my doctor`s such a useful connection so I called in just to ask for the score
He gave me coca-cola under prescription and he told me...
don`t come back for more
I'll see ya later, I'll see ya later
I'll see ya later, I'll see ya later
and that might be too soon
Well I wandered to the phone on the corner just to ask about the national health
But the man at the Department Of Rumour said they tell me that it's not very well
Well I was leaving and I reached for the handle and the receiver fell right off of the wall
A man passing said you`re a vandal and he told me...
What you need's a war
Called into the army recruitment, yeah I told them I was looking for fun
They said we haven`t got a lot at the moment but there should be one in Africa soon
It`s in the summer when the natives get restless and maybe I should call back in June
Of course we`ve always got the local in Belfast but it's our bet...
The next one's on the moon
You think you`re pretty and ya, you think you`re smart
That`s two things you got wrong and that`s just the start
Where d`ya get that notion that you control my heart
Silly little scrubber silly little tart
You mean nothing to me I`m just playing around
Silly little scrubber
I give you money and I buy you things
Satin dresses and golden rings
You know what I want in return for those things
So get upstairs when your doorbell rings
I`m coming round for the thing that`s mine
And you better show me a good time
You make it so easy to be cruel
And to be greedy and not to care at all
You won`t claim no respect
So what do you expect
Now that it`s time to crawl
You only get what you deserve
And there`s plenty more in reserve
So please don`t be sad, I`m picking up the tab
And ain`t it just the best time that a girl ever had
I don't wanna work all day
I don't wanna dress in grey, no
I used to be keen, the brightest boy in school
Now it's all through, 'cause I'm lonely without you
I don't wanna work all day
I don't wanna dress in grey, no
I used to be keen, the brightest boy in school
Now it's all through, 'cause I'm lonely without you
It's just another
It's just another
Another lonely schoolday
It's just another
It's just another
Another lonely schoolday
I don't wanna work all day
I don't wanna make the grade, no
I used to be keen, the brightest boy in school
Now it's all through, 'cause I'm lonely without you
Yeah - yeah, yeah - yeah
Lonely schoolday
Satisfaction guaranteed
Satisfaction guaranteed
Satisfaction guaranteed
Oh no Satisfaction guaranteed
Oh oh oh oh
I was looking for a good time
I saw the sign upon the door
Ten steps took me up to her room
Next day I was back for more
I never knew that it could happen
I never felt that way before
As I turned to pay my money
She held me tight and closed the door
She said...
He's got no eyes for any other
With gifts and flowers, you he smothers
Golly gee, what an n-u-t
The girls backstage don't get a look-in
He talks to you even when he's sleeping
Golly gee, what an s-a-p
He don't think it's funny if he spends all his money on you
What can the poor boy do?
He's got no eyes for any other
With gifts and flowers, you he smothers
Golly gee, what an n-u-t, what an s-a-p
That boy is me
I wish I had a girl, a girl like you
Someone who would love, love me too
A girl like mum, I could be my son
If I was my dad
Woah -oh, oh, Woah -oh, oh, Woah -oh, oh,
I wish I had a girl like mummy, just like mummy
Woah -oh, oh, Woah -oh, oh, Woah -oh, oh,
I wish I had a girl like mummy, just like mummy
She would feed me in my chair
Wash my clothes and comb my hair
Clean the egg-stains from my chin
Make my bed and tuck me in
Like mummy, oh yeah
Just like mummy, oh yeah
Like mummy, oh yeah
I would throw away my switchblade
Appreciate the love that she gave
I would be in ecstasy
If I was my dad
When I saw you, walking down the street
You looked the kid of girl, I`d like to meet
The way you fit inside that dress
How was I to know your mind was such a mess
Monotony that`s what you are
Monotony you take it too far
You bore me, you bore me to tears
One day with you seems like years
From all accounts you`ve been that way
Since that day that you were born
Excuse me little girl, I`m about to yawn
Remembering the movies that we used to see
The only true cowboy in our memory
We meet every evening we drink to your name
Here`s to our hero the only John Wayne
Big John, we miss you
Big John, we miss you
From Stagecoach to Shootist, we`ve seen every one
As big as a mountain, America`s son
Big John if you`re listening, up there in the sky
Forever our hero oh why did you die
May the good Lord bless and keep you
Whether near or far away
May you find that long awaited
Golden day today
May your troubles all be small ones
And your fortune ten times ten
May the good Lord bless and keep you
'Til we meet again
May you walk with sunlight shining
And a bluebird in every tree
May there be a silver lining
Back of every cloud you see
Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrows
Never mind what might have been
May the good Lord bless and keep you
'Til we meet again
Fill your dreams with swee-eet tomorrows
Never mind what might have been
May the good Lord bless a-and keep you
'Til we meet again
May the good Lord bless a-and keep you
'Til we mee-eet
'Til we mee-eet a-gai-ain...
Oh Lucy don't lie to me
Lucy don't lie to me
Cos I don't want excuses oh no
No I don't need excuses
Lucy, Lucy please don't cry to me
Lucy, Lucy don't cry
Oh Lucy don't cry to me
Lucy don't lie to me
Cos I don't need excuses oh no
No I don't want excuses
Lucy, Lucy
Lucy, Lucy
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh I`m living in the city in the shadow of things to come
Everywhere I turn neon lights like the midnight sun
Living in the city under traffic control
It`s just enough to make you believe
There's a subway to heaven and an underground to kingdom come
Living in the city
Living in the city
Living in the city
Living in the city
Little white lifeline
Little white lifeline
Little white lifeline
Little white lifeline all the time
You got me baby and you got me good
I got your number in my pocket book
My hands are shaking and my knees are weak
I took a taxi down to Berwick Street
I need you baby and I need you bad
And you`re the only friend I even had
You keep me going for another day
I couldn`t make it any other way
Little white lifeline - beating my heart away
Little white lifeline - up till the break of day
Little white lifeline - always on my mind
Little white lifeline all the time
You look so bold
You act so cool
So tell me why babe
When I'm kissing you...
You kiss like a nun... just like a nun
and it drives me crazy
You kiss like a nun... just like a nun
Kiss like a nun... just like a nun
Little sister
Tell me do
You got a nasty habit
When I'm kissing you
You weren't born yesterday
You ain't so dumb
So please tell me why honey
When I`m kissing you...
Another street and another town
Another mother in a black Sedan
You`ll never win 'cos you'll never lose
The flashing light and electric blue
I don't believe all is black or white
Someone's wrong is another's right
Soon learn how to get around
Keeping tuned to the sight and sound
Keep running, gotta keep running
Keep running, gotta keep running
Keep running, nine nine nine
It was a Friday, the rain was pissing down
I took my Norton and I rode into town
There was this young kid, all dressed in black
Riding his Honda and looking real slack
He tried to take us on the edge of town
Didn`t see the school bus that could have mowed him down
He swerved to miss it, I swerved to miss him
As I came off my bike, I saw him grin
I caught him on the motorway, he was doing one four five
He couldn`t leave me behind no matter how he tried
I`d never felt so good before as he hit the safety rail
Seeing that Jap junk break in two was worth my time in jail
And together we`ll ride away...
I'm getting out soon, how I long for that day
My Norton is waiting, and together, we'll ride away...
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way
I wish I was born in Lebensborn
Then all the other kids would have wished they could be like me
I wish I was born a movie star
I'd pick the best girls and drive my own flashy car
But my name is ordinary Jimmy Brown
The plainest looking kid in London town
Ordinary, boring Jimmy Brown
No one's having fun when I'm around
Oh oh oh, oh, Jimmy Brown
Oh oh oh, oh, Jimmy Brown
What can you do, with a kid like you?
I wish I could play like Johnny Ramone
I wouldn't have to sit in the corner of the pub alone
I wish I could drive a Chevrolet
I'd have the best clothes and nice tidy combed back hair
Oh oh oh, oh, Jimmy Brown
Oh oh oh, oh, Jimmy Brown
What can you do, with a kid like you?
Jimmy Brown etc.
Bet you think you're special don't ya girl
You don't include me in your social world
You're such a pillar of society
To those friends who say how much they love your personality
Independent girl, independent girl
Independent girl, I am the skid mark on your social world
I see your pictures in the magazine
I see you moving in the latest scene
But when you think you've got me on a string
I'm gonna be the egg stain on your chin
You`re just a bit too independent girl
You've got the pretty face, you've got the legs
You've got the body that oughta be rated "X"
So what's the matter girl, what's wrong with you?
I've gotta think you're weird, I really do
I love me, I love me, I love me
Why can't she?
Yet even though, I love me so
She never seems to notice me
I love me, I love me
Why can't she?
I'm the best guy that I've ever seen
And all the girls wanna have some fun with me
So what's the matter girl, what's wrong with you?
I've gotta think you're weird, I really do
I don't care about Rock 'n' Roll
I don't care about Beat or Soul
I never had a hope, never had a chance
Nobody ever taught me to begin to understand
Never had a hope, never had a chance
But it's alright
I don`t care about having a ball
I don't care about nothing at all
I never had a hope, never had a chance
Nobody ever taught me to begin to understand
Never had a hope, never had a chance
But it's alright
Cos baby I don't care
No baby I don't care
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
It's all the same 'cos
I Dont care about you
I call your name
But you're not there
Was I to blame for being unfair?
Oh I can't sleep at night
It's such a shame
I never weep at night
I call your name
Don't you know
I can't take it
I don't know who can
I'm not gonna make it
I'm not that kind of man
I call your name
I call your name
I call your name
There was a lonely man
A nobody you know
Who didn`t have a part
In life`s scenario
But when he needed you
You arrived on cue
Like the heroine in a movie
This man without a part
The man I used to be
He couldn`t get a break
Until you hit the scene
And when he needed you...
We improvised the script
We acted out our parts
You took it from the top
And played it from the heart
And when I needed you...
Remember those dark nights down Brickfield
Never a blade in sight..... (Brickfield Nights)
No youth club, no coffee bar
Saturday was the local cinema night... (Brickfield Nights)
Every night we`d meet at the same place same time...
Late nights spent kicking round a football
We carved our initials on the school wall
Remember those Brickfield Nights
Remember those Brickfield Nights
It seems so long, those days are gone
Dark nights down Brickfield
On summer nights like a sauna
We always met by the corner light... (Brickfield Nights)
Then the girls came with their long hair
High heels and the make up never quite right... (Brickfield Nights)
Every night we`d meet at the same place same time...
Saturdays at the local dance hall
They carved our initials on the school wall
I'm sick and tired of all the good times, bad times The petty little everyday problems
Who needs yours honey when I've got mine
Gonna disconnect me from the hard world
Lock myself away with a bad girl
Reach me care of box number nine three nine
Box number nine three nine
Box number nine three nine
Box number nine three nine
Gonna take my number from the phone book
Leaving my receiver offa my hook
If you got a problem dial nine nine nine
Gonna stock my hideaway with a
Year`s supply of TV dinners
Reach me care of box number nine three nine
Backstage pass
Backstage pass
When all the Punk bands
All sound second hand
I will still be loving you
When Johnny Rotten
Has been forgotten
I will still be loving you
When you're bored with Anarchy
You will still be special to me
You have been around
With every band in town
And all the Rats in Boomtown
You've had all The Jam
Even Paul's old man
In their brand new Mercedes van
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne!
[Chorus]
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
Well well well this situations getting worse
Could be the last time but I know it`s not the first
You claimed to be Picasso`s ghost as I recall
You took your paintbrush and you wrote up on my wall
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
I was drifting as you painted silently
In my kitchen where the window used to be
The only sound I heard was on my radio
God was singing on the Tony Blackburn show
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
I saw Kennedy looking for his brother
He said if you see him first will you tell him not to bother
It was fixed - oh yeah
Onassis who was with him and was taking in washing cos
He had to make a living said it don`t pay
To get too rich - oh no
Cleopatra said I haven`t got a hope
To Nostradamus who`d prepared her horoscope
He replied it would be wise it seems to me
Don`t play with snakes and people called Mark Anthony
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
"c" is for your little clit when i go down beneath.
"h" is for your pubic hair that sticks between my teeth.
"r" is for your rectum, that "i" fuck with my dick.
christmas comes but once a year and makes me fucking sick.
"s" is for your shitty asshole, clinkers 'round your bum,
"t" is for your massive tits that make me want to cum.
"m" is for masturbation, when you're not here with me.
"a" is for the agony of catching your vd.
"s" is for the syphilis that rots away my prick,
christmas comes but once a year and makes me fucking sick.
"s" is for the syphilis that rots away my ding-dong merrily along,
the chapel bells are ringing. ding-dong merrily along,
my fucking balls are swinging.
whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa,
whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa whoa....
the chapel bells are ringing. (more whoa's)
...my fucking balls are swinging!
Well there's a blizzard blowin' hard
And from the Alfred we've been barred
And John's so pissed that he can't hardly stand.
Listen to that drunken git
'Cause now he's being sick
But it's only a hundred yards to The Warrington!
Yes, it's only a hundred yards to The Warrington!
You can bet we're on Tom's mind
'Cause it's nearly closing time.
And pretty soon last orders will be called.
Christ, my balls feel like they're froze
And there's numbness in my toes
And it's only eighty yards to The Warrington!
Yes it's only eighty yards to The Warrington!
:
John, get up you drunken git
Don't just lie there in that fucking shit
I know we're pissed but we can make it if we try.
Alright, I guess it's best if we
Stop a fucking while and rest
But it's only twenty yards to The Warrington!
Yes, it's only twenty yards to The Warrington!
Late that night the storm was gone
And I found them there alone
He could've made it, but he wouldn't leave old John.
I found them froze in the street
Jack's boot down John's teeth.
They were only ten more yards from my house, that is The Warrington!
Yes, they were only ten more yards from The Warrington!
The boys are grinning from the photograph
It's Friday night and they're trying so hard
The sun is dropping and they want to go
Driving into town to see some girls they know
The boys, blazing on a summer night
Girls they want to watch them ride
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I don't remember
Boys, friends at every bar in town
Running all the good days down
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I don't remember
We felt like fighters when we caught the plane
Until that day we'd never heard its name
We did some things we didn't understand
And now we feel like strangers in our own land
The boys, blazing on a summer night
Girls they want to watch them fight
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I can't remember
Boys, friends at every bar in town
Running all the good days down
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I can't remember
This photograph, I hold it when I sleep
Cause people soon stop asking
When I cannot explain what I have seen
And at the bars in town
All the boys in town
Are running all the good days down
Running all the good days down
Running all the good days down
We're the boys of the bowery, the voice of the pissed-Hey!
Rock'n'roll warriors stomping the streets
Working class pride and loyalty
Injustice! Is what we see
Tell us the truth, Don't play us for fools
Tell us the truth today!-Oi!
Gonna make 'em speak the truth
We're gonna fight 'em all the way
Society's failed us, Society's gonna pay
I like them black boys
I like them white boys
I like them Asian boys
I like them mixed race boys
I like them Spanish boys
I like Italian boys
I like them Brazilian boys
I like Porto Rican boys
I like them tall boys
I like them short boys
I like them brown haired boys
I like them blonde boys
I like them big boys
I like them skinny boys
I even like those scrawny Scottish into pop music but not like sorta like pop dance electro music
Baby, baby,
I've got a lot of love to give
But lately, lately
I'm over-subscribed with relationships
But you got, you got,
a special something I ain't seen before
But I must warn ya,
That I can't but help but play around, for sure
For sure, for sure
Cause
We're the boys of the bowery, the voice of the pissed-Hey!
Rock'n'roll warriors stomping the streets
Working class pride and loyalty
Injustice! Is what we see
Tell us the truth, Don't play us for fools
Tell us the truth today!-Oi!
Gonna make 'em speak the truth
We're gonna fight 'em all the way
Society's failed us, Society's gonna pay
One way or another they'll feel our pain
If the bunch of us all stick together
And we all go down as one
We could be highway robbers
We could be killers just out to have fun
And if any of you can't keep a secret
We'll cut your throat if you tell
Then lay down 'neath six feet of ground
'Cause we were born to raise hell
Chorus:
All together now were the boys
All together forever and always
All together now we are the boys
We're together forever and always
If the bunch of us all, now listen,
'Cause here's the part I like the best
If we all got a hold of some horses
We could ride like the boys out West
We could hoot shoot, and we could holler
We could ride like the devil wind
Then go back to the cove and sleep all day
And do it the next night again
(Repeat Chorus)
If the bunch of us all stick together
And we all go down as one
We could be highway robbers
We could be killers just out to have fun
And if the bunch of us all form a circle
And surround all the ladies of the town
I said hey, hey hey we'll take them to the cove
And dance them till they all fall down
(Repeat Chorus Twice)
